    Anti-Freeze Disappearing

    Check your oil and see if it is showing up in it. I had a problem like your talking about. It took us quite awhile to find it. There was fluid leaking from a loose hose clamp. It only leaked when the truck was shut down and cooling off. It did not leak every time we shut down either. We found it...

    Ticket for in cab control

    Who would have to pay that ticket? The driver or the owner of the truck? Seems that would be unfair to a person/team that drives another persons truck. We had problems in Canada but skated by without a ticket. Layoutshooter

    Used IdleAire for the first time

    IdleAire is getting close to costing the same as fuel for idling. You still have a savings on engine hours. We like it when we are waiting for a load. You can check out anytime, unlike a motel when you pay for the night and leave 2 hours later. If we know when the next load is or are stopping...

    When to draw a line?

    I have run into this with loads before, all from the same shipper. From now on I don't unlock my role up door before I back into the dock. This forces them to allow me into the warehouse to unlock it since I won't give them my key. Then I just stay back the and insure the the load is on the...
